Events now began to move briskly. Gen.
Smith, with portion of the expedition, hav-
ing arrived on the 18th, Gen. Sherman was
ordered to land at some point below Eastport
and cut the Memphis and Charleston railroad
between Tuscumbia and Corinth. Passing

former trip up the river Capt. Gwin, of the
gunboat, found posted there Confederate
regiment lthe Eighteenth Louisiana,, and ac-
cordiagly sent word to Gen. Smith that
troops might properly BIO ordered to that
place.
Returning to headquarters on the night
Of the 18th, Sherman reported his i'll
ability to carry out the orders of Gen.
lIalcck, whercnpon he was instructed by Gen:
Smith to .',iis..ml,ark his own division and

SCOTT in the Mexican War.

His victories have never received The
credit justly due them ON account of the
apparent ease with which they were
gained. The student of military history
will rarely meet with accounts Of battles
in any age where tho actual operations CO.
incide so exactly with the orders issued
upon the eve of conflicts as in the official
reports Of the wonderfully energetic and
successful campaign in which Gen. Scott,
with handful of men, renewed the mem
DRY of the conquest of Cortes in his tri-
umphant march from Vera Cruz to the
capital. The plan of the battle of Cerro
Gordo was so fully carried out in action
that the official report is hardly more than
the general orders translated from the
future tense to the past. The story of
Chapultepec has the same element of the
marvellous in it, The general commands
apparent impossibilities in the closest de-
tail on one day, and the next day re-
ports that they have been accomplished
These successes were not cheaply attained
The MexicaDS, though deficient in science
and military intelligence, fought with
bravery and sometimes with desperation
The enormous percentage of loss, in his
army proves that Scott was engaged in no
light work. The Century.

Untold Sufferings-A Ten Years Exper-
fence.

GENTLEMEN: For ten years | have
had a tumor. During that time have
been under the treatment of the best
physicians in ATLANTA, Gal; and Utica,
N. Y, none OF whom were able to give
relief or assurance of cure. Then l
turned to the use OF patent medicines,
several of which l used without avail.
Ny doctor in Dawson, who had at
tended me for twenty years assured me
that L could not live a yea. About
two years agosI began using s. SIS,
and at once my tuinor yielded 10. g
influence; it grew softer and smaller,
and my general health, which was badly
run down, was built up with the de-
crease of the tumor Finally, ! felt so
well and my general health was SO
good, that | stopped the Swift Specific.
and went on performing my household
duties. But, OF course, as | had not
persisted in the use OF the medicine
until the tumor had entirely, disap-
peared, could only look for IA return
Of the ailment. Again resorted to the
use of the Swift's Specific, W tn the
same happy results as on the first occa-
sion. This has been repeated several
times within the last two years, the
medicine never falling to reduce the
tumor and build up my general system.
When l first began TO take the Specific,
was so nervous that could not sleep
for hours on retiring | felt that if /
just held my feet still for few minutes
by force of will, that it would have
thrown me into commissions. That
nervousness the S. S. S. entirely cured.
Ny pain was SO great that my physi-
Clans urged me to keep under tie In
huence of morphine all the time, and
to abandon hope of recovery When !
began to use the Specific, was on the
bed half my time, helpless invalid.
This year have been able to do all my
own cooking, except when was down
with severe cold. MRS. Nj. L. SAssER.
